DESCRIPTION:Join Mission/Maple Ridge\n\n	MP Randy Kamp\n\n	  \n\n	for breakfast during the fall break from Parliament. \n\n	Limited Seating to ensure discussion of topical issues!\n\n	Discussion around federal policies that effect your ability to do business.\n\n	 \n\n	Randy Kamp grew up in Maple Ridge\, B.C. and graduated from Maple Ridge Secondary in 1971.

The common thread through Randy's life is his commitment to serving people.\n\n	In 1997\, Randy was hired as the executive assistant to Grant McNally\, who served Dewdney-Alouette as the Member of Parliament from 1997 to 2004. In that role\, Randy got a first hand view of the everyday problems facing people in Pitt Meadows\, Maple Ridge and Mission and when McNally retired\, he was inspired to run for Parliament to make Canada an even better place in which to live and to make government more responsive and relevant to the people living in our communities.\n\n	On June 28th\, 2004\, Randy was elected as the Member of Parliament for Pitt Meadows   Maple Ridge   Mission. In his first term\, Randy was quickly promoted to the position of Official Opposition Critic for Fisheries and Oceans on the Pacific Coast.
